70 C10 project
 

Here is a new joint project we have going on with one of our customers. It's a 1970 C10. The truck is being purpose built for autox and track day fun. As of right now here are a list of some parts it will have:


- Detroit speed 595 front clip
- Custom DSE component rear four link suspension
- AutoRAD core support and radiator
- T56 magnum transmission
- Race prepped dry sump LS7 engine
-19x11.5" front wheels and 19x13 rears (Formula 43 Rad10)

Should have more updates soon.

Please tell me that's ride height being mocked up?

Awesome! I can't wait to see this one come together.

Yes, that is the set ride height in the picture. It will be about 3.75" off the ground.

Sweeet...I'm suscribed!! :yes: :yes:

Nice Billy! I really like watching your builds...:thumbsup:

That's awesome! I love seeing trucks very low on a static ride height :thumbsup:

man looks like a sik project

Should be a cool project!:thumbsup:

:wow: So C10s are the new Camaro. :D That truck is LOW and that Looks great.

Looking good Billy, will be cool to see this one come together :cheers:

The fab work on this one will be over the top.C-10's are quickly becoming the hot builds these day's.:thumbsup:

Billy- nice work..again! who makes the frame table? that thing is clean and simple

I think they made the table if I'm not mistaken. I think I may have to make one!!!

Awesome! Subscribed!

Nice:hail:

C10
 

Schweet! Love the ride height:thumbsup: I am thinking of selling my camaro and doing a truck

I subscribed as well!!! I so dig these trucks.

Swwet! I love these trucks!

I was admiring that table as well. :unibrow:

And the truck.. of course. :thumbsup:

He builds the tables himself. Think he has 3 there now.
Those are nothing, you should see his office furniture :_paranoid

I think we need a separate thread on those tables. :yes: I was eyeing it as well. One day, I'd like to get crazy and build a frame or subframe from scratch. I've got some ideas.

Looks like you started with a great truck.

Thanks Guys, I do make the frame tables. They work great for all different kinds of projects. Here are a couple update pics of the front frame together.

Wow this thing is coming along quick and great work as always! Looking forward to seeing this build come together!

Picked up the wheels from Travis at Formula 43 today. They turned out great!

The lS7 also arrived and is mocked up in place.

Lookin good Billy! What's the tire sizes? :thankyou:

I see alot of tables on here . How are you guys getting the cars down ?

Thanks Chad, the tire sizes are 305/30r19 front and 345/30r19 rear.



We normally use a fork lift with modified fork extensions to raise the bodies up and roll the rack out of the way.

looks wicked Bill,
I am looking forward to see what you do with the 4link out back.
I want to hear some feed back when you get this thing on the road, I am curious as to how it stacks up against a complete chassis that could have the body dropped on.
:popcorn2:

Great choice on the wheels! There needs to be an entire C10 class at upcoming events.

As always Billy,your work is out standing.C-10's are really picking up speed.:thumbsup:

It's been awhile since last update, but here are a few new shots. The truck should be a roller in the next couple weeks. Then it will go off to the owner for completion.

Thats going to be a fun truck. Nice !

Nice fab work Billy! What is the intended use for this bad boy?

Awesome stuff Billy! I gotta ask something. How tall is the owner? I was considering those pedals, but I'm 6-4 and couldn't make them comfortable. But those pedals are nice, I'm jealous.

Thanks Rick, the intended use of the truck is autox and open track sessions.


Thank you, the owner is 6-2 and it fits him perfect at the moment. It was very difficult creating a good competition/comfortable driving position with such a small area. The pedals were sunk into the floor as far forward as they could go before the master cylinders would start to interfere with the front tire.

Is the center fuse box a OEM unit.Billy this C-10 is going to over the Top.

Who makes the battery box? thats a nice looking one!
